My First Bag

Just one more day and I can drink pop again!!

I had decorated a gift bag this week to give to one of my kids teachers. I bought the bag at Rite Aid. It was just like making a card but just bigger.



I used the current sketch over at Papertake Weekly Challenge

FFEC: March 3A

Little Adventures
Well, with my b-day money I bought a one year subscription to picmonkey. I was so glad I did! They added bokeh!! I also got to use my favorite frame from picmonkey...daguerreotype frame!!   I know I was irritated that they had started to charge for their cool edits but I eventually realize....I just have to deal;)

Amy, the host of Flip Flop Edit Challenge supplied the pretty pic of the flowers.

42 and Hating It!

Yeah, today is my birthday.  Each year as I continue in my 40s it gets harder and harder.  The farther in my 40s I go, the closer I am to menopause and the realization that another pregnancy is not possible.

It is just sad.

This is what I did:
First with ipiccy-
  • Auto fixed
  • Brighten eyes and earrings with eye brighten tool.
  • Airbrushed.
  • Added a texture called Just Something by DesiraeR on DeviantArt.  I also follow her blog.  She gives a lot of tuts for Gimp.

Then I went on pixlr and framed it using the Default frame called Hassel.

SND: Girl Card

I took some time off from my DT over at Stamp-n-Doodle. That virus/bug was giving me problems for a few weeks. Still hacking a lung, especially at night, but I found energy to do some crafting! So..
 
Time for a new challenge over at Stamp-n-Doodle!  The theme is Mother's Day or a card for a girl.  I made a card to give to my teen niece.  I am using the Teen Chatty image.
 
Thanks for looking!

Flip Flop Edit Challenge Feb 4B

Little Adventures
Still feeling a bit out of it.  Haven't done much with the computer.  The coughing keeps me up so through out the day I feel so pooped!  Anywho...

The current pic over at Flip Flop Edit Challenge was supplied by the guest judge, Gina Kleinworth of Kleinworth & Co.  The picture is so picturesque, so crisp and clear!  Man, wish I had that kind of talent.

My Edit
 
Click the pics to make larger.

This is what I did:
 
With ipiccy,
  • I added a blue ray texture from Kawaii & Graph.  The link I have for it takes it to a forum page so I don't have the correct link to the texture itself.
  • Used the Daguerreotype filter.
  • Used the Polaroid Film Filter.
With Gimp,

Thanks for looking!
